Like they do in Alabama

I already know I’m going to hell, I’m just paving the road.

I spoke to her and she didn't say pea turkey squat.

Sure as a cat's got climbing gear.

You kin put your boots in the oven – but that don’t make ‘em biscuits.

A near man with a dollar

Tough as a pine knot in a sawmill.

He could fall down walkin’ from the house to the barn.

Sober as a judge

He’s three sheets in the wind.

He’s so dumb he couldn’t piss his name in the snow.

Country as a churn

It'd be quicker to train kudzu.

Lower than a snake’s belly

If you are in trouble and told to go out and cut your own switch…don’t come back with a little one…that ain’t going to work for ya.

She's so pretty she could make a hound dog smile.

The water won’t clear till you get the hogs out of the creek.

Don’t start choppin’ till you’ve treed the coon.

I’m going to paint your back porch red if you keep talkin like that!

Like a bump on a log

She’s possum ugly.
